How do I find the factor combinations of the number 432,537,700?

Unfortunately, there's not simple formula to identifying all of the factors of a number and it can be a tedious process when trying to identify the divisors of larger numbers. To find the factor combinations of the number 432,537,700, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.

Outside in Factoring

We start by creating a table and writing 1 on the left side and then the number we're trying to find the factors for on the right side in a table. Then, below that, write the numbers as a negative as well.

1 432,537,700
-1 -432,537,700

Why are the negative numbers included?

When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 432,537,700.

Example:
1 x 432,537,700 = 432,537,700
and
-1 x -432,537,700 = 432,537,700
Notice both answers equal 432,537,700

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 432,537,700 and divide it by 2:

432,537,700 ÷ 2 = 216,268,850

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 216,268,850 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 216,268,850 432,537,700
-1 -2 -216,268,850 -432,537,700

Now, we try dividing 432,537,700 by 3:

432,537,700 ÷ 3 = 144,179,233.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 144,179,233.3333 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 216,268,850 432,537,700
-1 -2 -216,268,850 -432,537,700

Let's try dividing by 4:

432,537,700 ÷ 4 = 108,134,425

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 108,134,425 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 4 108,134,425 216,268,850 432,537,700
-1 -2 -4 -108,134,425 -216,268,850 432,537,700
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
